SMTPServerDisconnected

Tue Feb 23 11:47:18 EST 2010

Hi;
I think the last main thing I have to do on my server is get a running email
server up. Now that I've nuked sendmail and given up on postfix, I'm back to
trying to get qmail up and running again. Of course, there are no active
discussion lists for *any* email server, so I have to turn here for help.
While running a script that worked perfectly well on another server to send
an email, I get the following error:

A problem occurred in a Python script. Here is the sequence of function
calls leading up to the error, in the order they occurred.

 /var/www/html/globalsolutionsgroup.vi/simplemail/mail2.py
   52 </head>
   53 <body>'''
   54 my_mail()
   55 print '''
   56 </body>
my_mail = <function my_mail>
 /var/www/html/globalsolutionsgroup.vi/simplemail/mail2.py in my_mail()
   33       to_address = ourEmail1,
   34       subject = subject,
   35       message = message
   36   ).send()
   37   Email(
message = 'Name: beno -\nMessage: test'
 /var/www/html/globalsolutionsgroup.vi/simplemail/simplemail.py in
send(self=<simplemail.Email object>)
  344         smtp = smtplib.SMTP()
  345         if self.smtp_server:
  346             smtp.connect(self.smtp_server)
  347         else:
  348             smtp.connect()
smtp = <smtplib.SMTP instance>, smtp.connect = <bound method SMTP.connect of
<smtplib.SMTP instance>>, self = <simplemail.Email object>, self.smtp_server
= 'localhost'
 /usr/lib64/python2.4/smtplib.py in connect(self=<smtplib.SMTP instance>,
host='localhost', port=25)
  305         if not self.sock:
  306             raise socket.error, msg
  307         (code, msg) = self.getreply()
  308         if self.debuglevel > 0: print>>stderr, "connect:", msg
  309         return (code, msg)
code undefined, msg = 'getaddrinfo returns an empty list', self =
<smtplib.SMTP instance>, self.getreply = <bound method SMTP.getreply of
<smtplib.SMTP instance>>
 /usr/lib64/python2.4/smtplib.py in getreply(self=<smtplib.SMTP instance>)
  349             if line == '':
  350                 self.close()
  351                 raise SMTPServerDisconnected("Connection unexpectedly
closed")
  352             if self.debuglevel > 0: print>>stderr, 'reply:',
repr(line)
  353             resp.append(line[4:].strip())
global SMTPServerDisconnected = <class smtplib.SMTPServerDisconnected>
SMTPServerDisconnected: Connection unexpectedly closed
      args = ('Connection unexpectedly closed',)

I cannot find the qmail logs. I assumed they'd be in either
/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-send
or
/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd
but I find no logs there.

How do I trouble-shoot this?
TIA,
beno
